Thanks babumoshyee
Act i figured out that boitanimation and shutanimation are same files. So used shutanimation for boot.
I tried galaxy s3 bootanimation but its resolution is not supported. Our's is 480x854

Sent from my Micromax A110 using xda premium

Currently I'm compiling a write up about changing or replacing the boot animation and shut animation. Will be posting soon.

I have been reading all this post.. lots of post.. all those page and no one is actually talking about GPS issue,

I have simple question..
Can you lock GPS if
Location Services --> Google's Location Services
is Turned off ?

Because I feel this phone's real GPS never works, only network based works.

Does this really have GPS in built

My GPS with Google Location Service on takes 1-2 second to get locked or basically when I start Maps .. its already locked. But if thats unchecked, it never locks, while I have samsung device, in that it actually locks to real satellite even if Google Location service is disabled along with AGPS disabled..

Hey guys, the boot animation which comes with the Micromax A110 isn't so impressive. So how about a new boot animation?

For the A110, there are two files, bootanimation.zip and shutanimation.zip which are actually the same. The bootanimation.zip is for when the phone boots up and the shutanimation.zip when you power off the phone.

Option 1
You could search for a boot animation online.
For this you could use droidiser's tutorial on the same from here.

Option 2
You could cook up one at Android Kitchen (AK).
Here, go to the Bootanimation tab. Check the 'Use this mod' box.
Don't bother about the 'Select place for bootanimation'.
For the next drop down menu, the A110 has a resolution of 480x854, so the second option of hdpi(480x800) would be fine.
Now below that there is a list of all the boot animations available at AK.
Click on the radio buttons to get a preview. Select the one you like and go to the Summary tab one after the Bootanimation tab. Then click on Submit Work to kitchen and then to the pick up page link and wait for your file to cook up.
You would get a download link. Download the file. Unzip that file where you would get the bootanimation.zip file.Take a backup of your original bootanimation.zip file which is located at /system/media.
(I have uploaded the original boot animation files in my previous post.)
Now copy the extracted file to the above path to replace your original boot animation. And you're DONE.

The A110 has another boot animation file when it powers off. So, if you want to change that too, then repeat the above steps and just rename the file to shutanimation.zip and then overwrite this to the same path above.Remember to backup the shutanimation.zip file also.

There is also a boot logo right before the boot animation begins. Will post soon on how to put in a custom one, which actually would be replacing the boot_logo file at /system/media/images

I'm using the CIA loading as my boot animation and scribble as my shut animation. They really look cool. Hope this works out well for you guys too.

Hey, AK says that the zips need to be flashed via cwm...
so is a flash required or does a simple copy paste work?

i mean pasting the zip file found in the system/media of the cooked "rom" to the phone's system/media...
works?

I tried what you did and got the same result. If the Google location services is disabled, then there is no GPS lock. With that enabled I get a lock within a couple of seconds.
